Time of Day Scheduling
<< back
Direct Digital Control [DDC] is used to establish electronic control of the Heating Ventilating Air Conditioning [HVAC] systems on campus. DDC systems also allow the consistent use of Time of Day scheduling. This function programs the HVAC to operate at an appropriate time of day for the scheduled activities of any given building. It also allows for the use of occupied set-points for temperature, standby set-back temperatures, un-occupied time setback temperatures and the appropriate response of the system to return to occupied set-points. TOD along with Occupancy Sensors provides us the most efficient method of controlling the temperatures in our spaces and thus saving energy dollars. A very big part of the DDC technology is communication with every building on BAS via our computer network and the internet.
